Information Superiority

Making decisions is a core skill that executives must have. Information Superiority is a Department of Defense Doctrine that can help companies facilitate executive decision-making by getting the right information, to the right executives, at the right time, which will help companies increase revenues, reduce costs, optimize risk, mitigate brand damage, and reduce the cyber and industrial espionage risk that companies face.

Legislative and Policy Support

The Lares Institute provides critical analysis of proposed legislation and regulations relating to technology. The Lares Institute prepares white papers and similar analyses on technology and information governance issues of interest to its members. In addition, because information governance is impacted by court and agency decisions, the Lares Institute has the capability, through an affiliated law firm, to prepare amicus briefs and other persuasive commentary on pending cases.

Research

The Lares Institute conducts original research regarding technology and information governance issues, in part based upon the Privacy 3.0 framework created by Executive Director, Andrew Serwin.

Training

Appropriate training can help your company prevent an incident before it occurs.
